Tom Brady and his mini wr core scorched this team the week prior. This just goes to show that Ben cant carry bradys, rodger, Brees or even flaccos jock at this point. 34 points by Tommy last week. Ben got lucky to get 7. Ben is the main thing holding back this team.... for god sakes the Cards scored more points on the Ravens last game than Ben put up. HE IS NOT WORTH 100 MILLLION DOLLARS ! So sick of all his OVER EXAGGERATED INJURY BULLLLSHHHITTTT !!!!!!!! BEN STFUP AND EARN YOUR MONEY YOU STIFF !

If you got that out of watching the game last night, well then I don't know what to tell you.

You're right union. It's Ben's fault that the first drive ended with Mike Wallace dropping a very catchable ball in the endzone and that Moore fumbled.

Ben did a good job of avoiding the rush, but he had to spend too much time and attention on that detail due to bad pass pro. Still, the INT was a very poor decision and throw. No pump fakes last night far as I remember, perhaps due to the broken thumb.

If you thought Ben stunk then I don't know what game you watched. Ben kept this team in game dodging pass rushers and keeping the play alive when his WRs were not getting open.

As mentioned, Moore fumbling and our vanilla defense is what kept this game close.

Can't blame the defense...they kept giving the offense opportunities, and the offense did little with them.

The offense stunk. Plenty of blame to go around: receivers dropped passes, o-linement whiffing and drawing penalties, Mewelde's fumble, a couple dumb decisions from Ben...
but most of all (again I say), "FIRE BRUCE ARIANS!" Other than the opening drive and a few other calls, he was about as bad as it gets.

that's a long list... just sayin' :wink:

I'm sorry but when there is this much blame to go "around" to put this one on BA.

Players were in positions to make plays... that's not coaching, that's execution.

If it wasn't for that vanilla defense, this could have easily been a loss.

Rewatch the game. A terrible QB gave us four turnovers. We didn't "force" anything. We could barely get near Palko.

why do we need to get to a QB who gives INT's to us?

we were given 4 INT's because we dropped 7 all game.

some of you act like pressure INT's are worth more....

You're right...when it comes to BA, "that's NOT coaching."

I'm not putting all the blame on him for last night's loss, but the players have off games on occasion...BA sucks nearly all the time.

But it sure would be nice just to get pressue on the QB for a change. Defense looks and are getting old right before our eyes.

Okay...a terrible QB gave the Steelers four turnovers...

Either way, it was only a four point differential...that's not the defense's fault...

The D held an NFL offense to less than 10 points in their own crib in primetime. On top of that, do you think that the Chefs wouldn't have made adjustments after last weeks debacle?

Not agreeing with this poster at all, but I did think to myself last night--I wish this team could once come into a game and completely dominate a lesser team from start to finish.

I know that I might be exaggerating this situation...it just seems that everything is way too hard for this team.

I was used to the death struggle under the 3 yards and a cloud of dust from the Cowher years...I was hoping a 60% passing first offense would not have the same MO.

What a bunch of crap. This team would be 2-9 without Ben.

With the rag tag offensive line that can't block or control any defense in the league along with receivers that are average at best unless it's Wallace sprinting 60 yards, Ben is the only reason this team wins at all.

steelblood

11-28-2011, 08:02 PM

Wallace dropped 2 balls he should have caught and cost us at least 10 points. If that game ends 24-9, no one is quite as angry and Ben's stat lines would be more like 250 yards and 2 TDs. Wallace was simply terrible last night. It happens.

They played man coverage almost the entire night. Our young WRs couldn't beat the press or couldn't make the catches when they did get the ball. Sadly, even with the current WR talent, we could still use a Burress to help out in games like these.

– Roethlisberger had thrown for at least 200 yards in 17 consecutive regular-season games prior to Sunday night.

But he and Tomlin said his broken right thumb had nothing to do with Roethlisberger coming up seven yards short of extending that streak to 18 games.

“I didn’t think it was a factor,” Tomlin said of Roethlisberger’s injured thumb. “In terms of his execution we didn’t have any discussions regarding it — he or myself, the medical staff. It was a non-issue.”

Roethlisberger said his latest injury didn’t contribute to a third-quarter interception that blemished his stat line. Roethlisberger threw into double coverage and Chiefs quarterback Travis Daniels made an easy pick.
